Give your mind a fruit-infused burst of stimulation. Sherbet Queen is the indica sensation that breaks typical stereotypes to induce an impactful high on both mind and body. Sharing genetics with the illustrious Girl Scout Cookies, her delicious flavours, seductive aromas, and highly medicinal attributes provide a wholesome experience. Clear your schedule and embrace a euphoric adventure.
Sherbet Queen comes packed to the brim with so many desirable attributes, it is difficult knowing where to start. We could begin with the delicate forest fruits aroma that engulfs the senses, or the bright orange pistils that glisten in the midday sun. We could even elaborate on her incredible heritage, being a direct descendant of the world-renowned Girl Scout Cookies. Instead, let's start with what makes Sherbet Queen so desirable to a broad range of recreational and medicinal users.
Sherbet Queen's genetics come to us courtesy of two special strains, Sunset Sherbet and Pink Panties.
Sunset Sherbet is itself a blend of Pink Panties and GSC, and it endowed Sherbet Queen with some deliciously fruity flavours. Pink Panties, on the other hand, is a blend of Burmese and Florida Kush that offers a lemony kick with an herbaceous aftertaste.
The intense high is not typical of an 85% indica-dominant strain. Usually, smokers could expect such an indica to lock them in a state of immobility, confined to the sofa while the sedative attributes work their magic on your aches and pains. There are indeed elements of this in the high; however, it is the uplifting, energetic, and creative traits of sativa that shine through. An entire afternoon is still needed to appreciate the complexity of Sherbet Queen's High. However, the option to be productive still presents itself.
If the stresses of modern life are starting to take their toll, she is the perfect remedy. Subtly calming on the body, she is fiercely effective when it comes to banishing feelings of anxiety and worry. With a potent THC content, it won’t take much for the sublime, earthy flavours and intriguing high to work their way to every inch of your weary body and mind.
Perhaps the only trade-off for such a gratifying high are the moderate buds she produces. Thankfully, very little maintenance is needed during both the vegetative and flowering stages, so she can be forgiven for slightly less-than-average yields. Resilience to mould is good, and if you are fortunate enough to live in a Mediterranean climate, growing her outdoors is a sensory delight. For indoor growers, she still requires very little attention, but keep an eye on humidity levels. Harvestable between late September and early October, she is a fantastic side project for experienced growers and a simple venture for the uninitiated.

Strain FAQ
Are strains which finish at the End of September more sustainable?
Absolutely. These strains are said to need less water and nutrients since they finish faster. Their low light and heat requirements reportedly make them a greener outdoor production option.
What role did landrace strain genetics play in North American and Canadian strain development?
True landrace strains are rare in North America and Canada, although landrace genetics from around the world have helped generate many popular strains. These genetics have introduced new traits and increased genetic diversity, altering cannabis development forever!
Is it all just about the High THC content and nothing else?
No! Even though THC is the most commonly known psychoactive element within the cannabis plant, even THC heavyweights don't just have strength. It is said that other cannabinoids and terpenes complement THC to create the strain's particular flavour. Due to their chemical makeup, it is well known that two strains with comparable THC amounts may have quite distinct experiences.
What terpenes are responsible for earthiness?
Along with myrcene, humulene adds a woody tone to the earthy scent, and it's intriguing that hops contain it. Beta-caryophyllene's spicy, peppery scent adds earthiness and reportedly interacts with the endocannabinoid system.
Do 12/12 photoperiod strains have an edge in terpene profiles?
Sometimes, a little stress goes a long way, especially when it comes to pumping up the terpenes in 12/12 photoperiod strains. The stringent light schedule can stress the plants just enough to kick their flavor and aroma profile up a notch!
